8. Ask yourself what moved forward. Did you publish a post? Have a real conversation? Find an idea you’ll use?
If you opened X for fun, own it. You’re allowed to enjoy it.
7. Decide what gets your attention after X.
You can put your phone down and still spend dinner waiting to see how your post did. Let the person in front of you finish the story.
Yesterday, you held your breath waiting for today. Today, you’re holding it for tomorrow. How many good moments have passed while you were waiting for a chance to breathe?
FIX YOUR LIFE BEFORE THE WORLD WAKES UP.

4. Open your curtains. Let some daylight into your room.
5. Stretch your body. Give yourself a few minutes to loosen up.

7. Sit quietly for five minutes. Give yourself room to think.
8. Check what needs doing. Pick one thing you want to finish today.
